WarpZip - Using the Queue
WarpZip allows dropping several files onto the archive viewing window in one drag and drop action. When dropping files onto the archive viewing window you are presented with several choices.
- Open the first archive and start a queue - This will open the first archive in the dropped files listing and add the remainder to the queue. Any archives that were in the queue will be discarded in favor of the new listing and any archive that was loaded is removed for the new archive to move into it's place.
- Add archives to the queue - A new queue is started but none are loaded into the archive viewing window. If there is an existing queue, the dropped files are added to the list. The only noticable difference will be the appearance or increase in the number of files queued as shown on the "Queue button".
- Open first archive only - Opens the first dropped file and does not affect the queued items. Example: If there were one archive open and four archives queued the open archive would be displaced by the newly dropped archive and the same four that were queued will remain in the queue after opening an archive with this selection.
- Add files to the open archive - This selection will add all of the files dropped to the currently open archive. If no archive is open, WarpZip will ask you for a name and create a new archive.
- Create a new archive - You will be prompted for a new name for the archive and WarpZip will build the archive from the list of files dropped.
- Cancel drag and drop - Cancels all actions.
After dropping archives onto the archive viewing window or when starting Warpzip after the Download PreProcessor has written a queue the "Queue button" will appear in the lower right corner of the window. The Queue button will keep a running tab on the number of archives waiting to be reviewed. Every click of this button will load the next archive and de-increment the counter.
